II. During Installation
1. Install the gate opener on the inside of the property
and fence line.
DO NOT
install an opener on the
outside of the gate where the public has access to it.
2. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close
proximity to areas where fingers or hands could be
pinched.
3. Devices such as contact sensors (safety
edges) and non contact sensors (photo beams)
provide additional protection against entrapment.
4. If push buttons or key switches are installed, they
should be within sight of the gate, yet located at
least 10 feet from any moving part of the gate (see
diagram below).
Never install any control device where a
user will be tempted to reach through the
gate to activate the gate opener.
5. Do not activate your gate opener unless you can see
it and can determine that its area of travel is clear of
people, pets, or other obstructions. Watch the gate
through its entire movement.
6. Secure outdoor or easily accessed gate opener con-
trols in order to prohibit unauthorized use of the gate.
